It's here! It's Bandcamp Friday, "when your purchase gives more to the artists you adore". I'm going to get the latest by Jonathan Stout, a fantastic swing guitarist. And a recently unearthed live recording from "The Master".

Can't wait to welcome these two new members from Hoffman who say such nice things about us: "I realize it's probably on a bit of a decline and its best years were 20 years ago" and: "I can't say I miss seeing certain users act like complete asses. I think what got me to stop visiting for a while was when a critic there who lived in the poshest and wealthiest suburb in the Chicagoland area actually had the nerve to blast certain jazz artists for modeling (and presumably making deals with) fashion designers, as if they're not allowed to have too much success or comfort. Combined with the racial disparity between him and those he was trashing, it just made his garbage all the more off-putting."

Bandcamp Friday is the 6th!
